Yao Family Wines Produces Two Acclaimed Wine Brands

YAO MING and Napa Crest

Our most limited production Cabernet, YAO MING Family Reserve, belongs in the library of every passionate wine connoisseur.

Napa Crest is a portfolio of wines created for every day drinking with family & friends. Our Red Wine is made in the classic Bordeaux style, as is our Sauvignon Blanc. Our debut 2016 Rose is a light and delicious blend of Napa Valley Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Yao Family Wines is proud to announce the release of our very first, single-appellation Cabernet Sauvignon. From our Vineyard perched on top of Howell Mountain at at elevation of 2,100 feet, this Cabernet reflects the power and intensity characteristic of a terroir of decomposed volcanic ash and red clay. We only produce three barrels due to low Mountain yields.

Celebrate The Year of The Dog with this limited edition, commemorative bottling of our 2014 Napa Crest Red Wine (92 Points, Wine Enthusiast). Featuring a label custom designed exclusively for Yao Family Wines, this bottle makes a thoughtful gift or a delicious addition to your Chinese New Year celebration. Only 100 bottles created. Not available in stores.

Yao Family Wines is proud to introduce our very first sparkling wine, the 2016 YAO MING Napa Valley Brut. A delicious, creamy blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from our valley floor estates in Napa, this sparkler is perfect for dinner parties and all your special occasions. Available exclusively at our tasting room and online store.

Our inaugural bottling of Rose comes from our estate vineyards in Napa Valley, featuring a blend of 68% Merlot and 32% Cabernet Sauvignon. With bright acid, low alcohol and a gorgeous, sunrise color, our Rose is the perfect wine for springtime sipping and a variety of your favorite dishes. And throughout the month of February, for every bottle sold, we'll donate $5 to WildAid, the preeminent foundation dedicated to ending illegal wildlife trade in our lifetime.

From our vineyards in the south of Napa comes the second bottling of our acclaimed Napa Crest Sauvignon Blanc. Created in the Bordeaux style with 92% Sauvignon Blanc and 8% Semillon, the 2016 vintage shows classic Napa Valley providence with aromas of melon, fig and fresh pear. A perfect summertime wine!

Our Napa Crest Red Wine is our tip of the hat to the great blends of Bordeaux. A proprietary blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot from premiere vineyards in south Napa, Oakville and St. Helena, the 2014 reflects another outstanding vintage that's drinkable now and will reveal even more complexity over the next five to seven years.

The Crown Jewel of our portfolio, the 2014 YAO MING Family Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is the purest expression of varietal and terroir that we create. An exceptionally limited wine, this year's vintage is available exclusively through our wine club and at the Tasting Room.

The 2014 vintage of our flagship Cabernet reflects all the distinct charactaristics of our vineyard sources, ranging from our bench land site in Yountville to northern St. Helena, to western alluvial fans in Rutherford, to mountain fruit from Spring Mountain and the cool volcanic growing region of Coombsville. As unique as the man himself, it's an extraordinary addition to any collector's cellar.
